Alignment Specs for Thirdgen Fbody

I am lowering my 1991 Pontiac Firebird w/ Eibach Pro-Kit 1" drop all around. I have aftermarket front and rear sway bars, panhard bar, LCA's, SFC's and KYB Gas-a-just shocks and GR2 struts. What camber would I go with. This is my daily driver but I store it in the winter and I do AutoX maybe 3-5 times a summer. Thank u very much.

Since it's your daily driver I wouldn't go over 1 degree negative camber. Your tires MIGHT wear a little on the inside depending on how you drive. I use more but I probably don't have a lot of sense anyway!

Ok. So if I tell them I just want -1 Camber at the alighnment shop they will know what I am talking about? Are there any other numbers I should tell them? This is my first custom alighnment.

I would go with -1 camber, +4 caster, and 0 toe. Some shops will tell you they won't warranty settings that are outside of the factory specs but none of these settings are that abnormal.

To give you an idea, I run -1.5 camber +4.7 caster and 0 toe.
